there's people that believe that atsushi's whole idea of dazai will change if he gets to know what he did while being in the mafia and that he'll hate him or something but i genuinely don't think it would happen

i absolutely agree! for example: he also doesn't see akutagawa as evil, he genuinely thinks that he'll change if atsushi helps him enough (for example by making a promise with him that he'll not kill for 6 months and if he keeps it, he can kill atsushi - i'm pretty sure atsushi thinks akutagawa will change his mind about killing him when he realizes he doesn't have to kill people to be strong/accepted by dazai). i think it's the same with dazai, only that he already has changed and is a better person. besides, i also think that atsushi is aware (at least unconscious) what dazai is capable of.

Sorry for another addition but I think Atsushi is not blind and naive when it comes to people around him. He knows people can be cruel, he just chooses to be optimistic and to see the best in them!

While I do think learning about mafia Dazai would fundamentally adjust some things Atsushi knows about Dazai, I doubt it would he would change the way he acts towards him significantly.

Agree with everything everyone else have said above me, however, I would like to add one thing.

I think seeing mafia Dazai (and potentially a much much younger Dazai) would help Atsushi understand him better, and empathise with him more. We already know he's one of the few people who have the ability to do so without accidentally hurting Dazai, but for now he views Dazai as his mentor. He sees him as a rolemodel (not in all situations) and thinks about what Dazai would do. This, coupled with his interactions with Dazai, always puts him in the mentor/older trusted person role. It's definitely not a parental bond, but it has similar effects.

I think Atsushi would be able to see the child in younger Dazai. I don't think he'll understand Dazai the same way Oda did. But I think it'll help fill in the gaps, and to see Dazai beyond the mask that he uses with the ADA. He's already seen bits of genuine emotion and cracks in his perfectly crafted facade (most obvious example would be the wan scene or if you want more canon, dead apple where he says he believes Dazai is a good person).

Anyways, I wasn't able to convey all I wanted to in a good manner, but I will say this : Atsushi will definitely be one of the people who will help with Dazai's healing in the long run. Maybe he'll never truly heal, but that's fine. They'll all be together, that's what's important.

Wait a minute you're a math major !!! Do you have some tips for girlies struggling with trigonometry?

(Really hope this isn't a weird ask or anything. ily I hope you have a nice day <3)

Ily too Lira 💕💕

To be frfr I struggled so hard with trig, but it really taught me how to learn math rather than coast through it and that not immediately understanding something is ok. That being said here's all the tips and tricks I learned while taking trig 👍👍👍.

Disclaimer: I took trigonometry at a community college which may affect the advice I give.

Trigonometry specific advice:

- Memorize the unit circle ASAP

- When in doubt just use the quadratic formula (this is the strategy that worked for the person who sat next to me 🤷)

- If you have a proving Pythagorean identities unit: just walk away from a problem if you're hitting a dead end. Burning yourself out on a question will only make you struggle more

All math applicable advice

- Don't be afraid to ask for extensions. the trick to getting good at math... is just doing the math and that's kind of impossible if you're just rushing to turn in an assignment at the same time as everyone else.

- Always ask stupid questions, I'm not going to tell you that there's no stupid questions because there definitely are and I've definitely asked them before, but engaging with the material shows your professor/teacher that you want to make the effort to learn (therefore making it easier to weasel out extensions from them)

- Use your resources!! my highschool and CC both provided free math tutoring if you knew where to look for it. Ask around your school to see what resources are available to you!!

- This is probably bad advice, but find that one really pretentious know it all STEM boy and ask him about a question on the homework you're struggling with. In my experience he'd do the entire question for me just to show he was better than me, and then I'd use the work he did on that problem as a blueprint for similar questions on the homework (aka using my resources).

Good news: it gets better! Everyone I knew who struggled in trig thrived in calc and vice versa, but that may just be the school I went to.

Ok one of my friends said that this video helped them memorize the unit circle

And another friend said I should add the advice of reading the text book if you don't understand the concept during lectures!!! (I do not follow this advice personally... But I should)

Hello! So I have a trigonometry tip actually, don't know how useful it will be since there's already a video, but this is better than memorising to me ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

Okay so, you have the table, right? Starting from 30° and ending at 90°. Write down the numbers from 0 to 1 in steps of 0.25. this would be : 0, 1/4, 1/2, 3/4, 1. Now,

Take the square root of these for each of their respective degrees.

That's sin theta (i.e. 0, 1/√2, 1/2, √3/2, 1)

Reverse the order. That's cos theta.

Divide sin/cos. That's tan theta.

Now, cosecant. Take 1/sin

Secant : 1/cos

Cotangent : 1/tan.

Personally, I never wanted to memorize that stupid fucking table and my dad helped me come up with this method, it might take a couple of minutes (it takes me barely 30 seconds because I'm used to it and only really need to do the calculation for the last three) but this is for my fellow besties who hate memorising math and need a logical approach to solve things.

Okay, ready? bc imma dump the entire storyline right here right now:

Mori Ougai and Fukuzawa Yukichi are the co-founders of Feddie Faber's Pizzeria (They had some trademark issues to work around), and they were the best of friends and they both wanted to use the power of pizza, robots and capitalism to entertain kids. But Mori had secret, evil ulterior motives, he made a children's pizza place to get close enough to MURDER THEM! That's right, Mori was secretly a child serial killer! why? Bc the souls of dead kids had the ability to extend one's lifespan and bro was really into the prospect of immortality.

Mori's first victim, Yosano Akiko, his friend Fukuzawa's daughter. It was young Yosano's birthday and she was locked out in the rain from her own party, hosted at Feddie Faber's. That's when Mori snekily pulled up to her and MURDERED HER. The security puppet robot at Feddie's tried to save her but ended up malfunctioning in the rain and died beside Yosano. Her soul fused into the security puppet and she was REBORN in to the vengeful Puppet who vowed to give life to any kid murdered by Mori and take him down...

Fast forward to 1983, and Mori's son, 15 year old Dazai Osamu is causing trouble at his younger sibling Yumeno Kyuusaku's birthday party at Feddie's. Dazai has been taunting them and sticking his sobbing sibling's head in the highly volatile springlock Golden Feddie animatronic suit. Sudennly a freak accident occured and the super dangerous springlocks in Feddie's jaw malfunction and they CRUSH Kyuu's frontal lobe. They die. And Dazai is overwhelmed with guilt at being the one to cause their death.

Mori, devastated by his youngest's death vows to never let his kids be killed by animatronics ever again. But he still wants to keep up his child murder hobby. ITS OKAY IF IT ISN'T HIS KIDS. Mori said #notmychildren. Not too long afterwards his youngest child Elise gets scooped by one of his special Child Killer Robots, Circus Bebito (again, trademark conflict), and she eventually possesses that robot. Now the family is left with just Mori and Dazai.

The year is 1985, and Dazai wants to die. He still hangs around his father's pizzeria, and let a few of the regulars get close to him. You could maybe call it friendship.

  • First, there's Edogawa Ranpo, an older kid that Dazai thought was cool. Ranpo liked detective stories and the gross sugary candy from the prize counter and only played the easy, high ticket yield games in the arcade. Dazai though that was very cool too, especially the detective part. Unfortunately Ranpo's passion for investigation would be his downfall.
  • Next we have Miyazawa Kenji, a young kid from the countryside who found an inordinate amount of joy from the robotic animal performers at Feddie Faber's. Kenji was a naive kid though, and his trust in the Feddie's character's would be his end....
  • Izumi Kyouka spent a lot of time playing at Feddie's with Kenji. She's a pretty shy kid, but cared a lot for her friends in loved ones, a really strong protective streak, one that would get her into danger. Dazai held a lot of fondness for Kyouka, but that couldn't be said for
  • Her older brother and his no. 1 enemy, Nakahara Chuuya, but looking back on it, Dazai would probably call him his best friend. Chuuya was an employee at Feddie's, and Dazai had some of the most fun in his teenage years harrassing Chuuya's while he tried to serve pizzas in peace. But Chuuya cared too much about his family and seriously lacked self preservation skills, maybe if he kept his head down like a good employee he would have survived.
  • Finally, there's Akutagawa Ryuunosuke. Dazai never liked Akutagawa, but he did like to bully Akutagawa. Dazai regrets his cruel behavior, the boy didn't deserve what happened to him.

None of the five kids made it out of Feddie's alive. Their disappearances in the summer of '85 was infamously known as the Dissappeared Kids Ordeal (some publication in America got dirst dibs on a catchier name for a similar situation.)

The next person who needed to disappear was their killer, Mori himself. All he needed to do was collect enough samples of the life lengthening soul powers from the child-stuffed animatronics he made and he was set. But, PUPPET YOSANO (yeah she's back) wouldn't allow that, she gifts life to the dead children ghosts and they unionize against Mori. He, in a last ditch effort to hide from the ghosts after him, jumps into his springlock murder suit. The springlock mechanisms fail on him and he gets crushed to death in the suit. The Feddie's day crew eventually find him and, not wanting to alert another major scandal for the company, they seal him inside a back room to rot away forever

Dazai spends the last year of his childhood alone.

He knew his father had something to do with all the death he's experienced throughout his life but he needed the full picture. So Dazai took a *calculated risk* he followed his fathers instruction that he left behind.

> go to the Circus Bebito Party Bunker, finish up the business for me. you will know the truth about what happened to your sister and friends.

Dazai did and he learned about Mori's dark objectives. He discovered his old notes about the kids he killed,

  1. Kenji was inside the chicken animatronic, he was led away by the killer in a springlock suit
  2. Kyouka ended up inside the bunny. she just wanted to know where her friend and questioned the costumed "employee" who was with him last.
  3. Chuuya was stressed searching for his younger sister, stumbled into the wrong backroom at the wrong time with a conveniently empty fox animatronic at hand. He just wished he didnt trust his boss as much.
  4. Ranpo's attempt at playing detective really didnt end well when he got too close too the truth. Ranpo always liked Feddie more than the other character, but that didnt mean he wanted to get shoved into it.
  5. Akutagawa ended up in the decommissioned Golden Feddie. In a twisted way the two people Dazai hurt the most ended up demonically possessing the same robot.

Dazai heard enough, he was about to leave when. HE DONE GOT SCOOPED. See at his brief tenure working at Circus Bebito's Party Bunker, he got tricket by Fyodor the Circus Ballerina, Nikolai the Circus Feddie, Sigma the Circus Fox and his sister Elise, the Circus Bebito. The Circus robots all fused together to for THE DECAY OF ROBOTS. They trap Dazai in the Scooping Room and Scoop his insides out. And then Dazai got what he wanted and died.

But not really. Dazai was somehow still alive... see, Dazai was injected with the magical dead child soul juice that granted him an extra long life. So his body was dead and hand no internal organs, he was decaying but he somehow survived. Which means that his father did too somehow.

Dazai now has a mission! He wrapped his rotting body in place with bandages, got a security uniform and set to work. He needs to go back to Feddie's and realease the agonized souls of his dead friends, kill the Decay of Robots, and kill Mori. Then he can retire peacufully to the afterlife.

So.. can Dazai survive five nights at Feddie's?
